Overview

The Rossi Rio Bravo 22LR lever-action rifle with gold receiver and hardwood stock is a modern interpretation of the classic lever-gun design, optimized for the affordable and versatile .22 LR cartridge. This rifle features a tubular magazine with a capacity of 15 rounds, allowing extended shooting sessions without frequent reloading. The lever action is engineered for crisp, positive engagement, reducing the risk of short-stroking common in lesser designs. The gold receiver is not merely decorative; it is treated with a corrosion-resistant anodized finish that protects against moisture and handling wear. The hardwood stock is crafted from select-grade walnut, oil-finished for durability and a traditional appearance. The rifle includes a manual cross-block safety and a half-cock hammer notch for secure carry. The rear sight is a fully adjustable buckhorn style, paired with a brass bead front sight for quick target acquisition. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, accommodating a Weaver-style base for optics.
